John Klof has been providing quality electric and acoustic guitar lessons for over 25 years instructing both children and adults.
He offers private one on one lessons though special arrangements can be made to instruct multiple students. His teaching philosophy is to encourage his students to choose the music they want to learn in order to help keep them interested and self-motivated. His teaching methods are basically a two part process and are infuenced by his experience and teaching background in child development and music (please see Biography). His students learn to play by following him on the guitar and/or by tablature notation. Tablature is a form of notation that shows guitar fingering rather than musical pitches and is commonly used with rock and pop music. The second part of his method is promoting good musicianshp, or the quality of playing, and is encouraged by developing good listening skills. John teaches anything from current rock/pop music to contemporary music of other generations like LED ZEPPELIN or the BEATLES.

Improvisation
Students of any instrument can participate in the improvisation program. Since improvising is a form of music writing, music theory and the fundamentals of harmony are taught first. How to start and in what direction to go are some of the primary concerns with improvising and teaching these basics will give the student a better understanding of how music functions.
